    16  the amount of New York city receipts for  purposes  of  this  clause  is
    17  determined  by  dividing the amount of the receipts for the taxable year
    18  by the number of months in the taxable year and multiplying  the  result
    19  by twelve, plus;

    22  the city as hereinafter provided.
    23    In  the  case  of a taxpayer which is not subject to tax for an entire
    24  year, the exemption allowed in clause three of subparagraph (a) of  this
    25  paragraph  shall  be  prorated according to the period such taxpayer was
    26  subject to tax. Provided, however, that this paragraph shall  not  apply
    27  to  taxable  years  beginning  after December thirty-first, two thousand
    28  [twenty-three] twenty-six.   For the  taxable  years  specified  in  the
    29  preceding sentence, the tax imposed by subdivision one of section 11-603
    30  of this subchapter shall be, in the case of each taxpayer, determined as
    31  specified  in  paragraph  A of this subdivision, provided, however, that
    32  the provisions of paragraphs G and H of this subdivision shall apply for
    33  purposes of the computation under clause three of  subparagraph  (a)  of
    34  such paragraph A.
